John Kennedy (R-LA) responded to the clip by listing reasons Harris struggled with speaking engagements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cShe\u2019s struggling for a couple of reasons,\u201d Kennedy said. \u201cNumber one, she doesn\u2019t appear to be prepared. Number two, no matter how well-prepared you are, you have to be able to express yourself. And with respect, I would say the vice president needs to work on being a little more articulate. Some might say that based on her performances that English is not her first, second, third, or even fourth language.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cBut number three, I think sound advice for anyone, politician or not, is always be yourself unless you suck. If you suck, have enough self-awareness to know you suck, and try to do better,\u201d he added. \u201cAnd I just don\u2019t get the impression that the vice president is \u2013 she\u2019s not being herself. She\u2019s trying to sound smart instead of just saying what she believes and saying it in a clear articulate manner that the average American who\u2019s busy can understand.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Original Article: <a href=\"https:\/\/thejeffreylord.com\/kamala-harris-faces-backlash-after-latest-word-salad\/\">https:\/\/thejeffreylord.com\/kamala-harris-faces-backlash-after-latest-word-salad\/<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer\/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fthejeffreylord.com%2Fkamala-harris-faces-backlash-after-latest-word-salad%2F\"><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Vice President Kamala Harris is facing backlash after a recent video clip of her went viral in which she gave a nonsensical word salad answer after being asked to define culture.
